Susan Rae
Hill was born in Irving, TX, on July 17, 1967. The adult contemporary Vocalsist's
first single — recorded using her mother's maiden name of Ashton to avoid
confusion with Kim Hill — gained an audience with CCM radio listeners around
America in 1991, and made her album Wakened by the Wind the biggest-selling
debut in the history of the Sparrow label. Ashton reached number one in the
Christian charts two more times that year, received a Dove award for New Artist
of the Year and won a CCM readers and reporters poll for Best New Artist. Her
second album, Angels of Mercy (1992), proved her staying potential: it
spawned four CCM number one singles and was nominated for a Grammy in the Best
Pop Gospel Album category. Ashton won the 1993 CCM readers award for Favorite
Inspirational Album and a reporters poll for Best Female Artist. She narrowly
missed capturing Dove awards for Female Vocalsist of the Year, Inspirational
Recorded Song of the Year and Contemporary Album of the Year. Also in 1993,
Susan Ashton married John David Cunningham and released her self-titled third
album, with two singles charting number one. She was nominated for a 1994 Dove
award in the category Female Vocalsist of the Year. Ashton also branched out that
year, recording Down the Road with Margaret Becker and Christine Dente. That
album was voted the Favorite Inspirational Album and Favorite Vocals Event in the
1995 readers' polls, and was nominated for Dove awards in the Group of the Year
and Recorded Music Packaging of the Year categories. Ashton herself was
nominated for Female Vocalsist of the Year. Susan Ashton's collection of hits,
So Far...The Best of Susan Ashton Volume 1, appeared in 1995. The following
year, Ashton signed with Chordant and released Distant Call. Closer,
her debut for Capitol, followed in mid-1999.
